Keble Blues Fund

Blues Fund - University Sports & Activities

1. The College acknowledges that those junior members who play sport at the University level often incur considerable additional expenditure. It is not possible to seek to reimburse all such expenditure but some contribution is made from the Junior Members Activities’ Budget by way of the Blues Fund. It is not a condition of applying for funding from this scheme that you should be awarded a Blue. Any representation at University level will suffice.

kit/clothing, including any team strips and club uniforms (Blues blazers etc.) refreshments, including training meals

If any items on this list appear in a claim, they will simply be deleted. Any items not on either list will be left to the discretion of the Senior Treasurer whose decision will be final.

2.2 NB. Receipts must be obtained for all claims which may be made. No application for reimbursement will be accepted without a receipt. If receipts are not available, a letter in support may be accepted as evidence of expenditure, but only if it is signed by the Senior Member for the University sport in question. Such letters will not be accepted and the claims in question will not be processed, if it is signed by another junior member.

2.3 By no later than the end of Week 6 in Trinity Term, a claim must be submitted to the Senior Treasurer, along with supporting receipts. There is no application form. A short letter setting out the items claimed for and the total amount will suffice.

2.4 The allocation of the Blues Fund is at the discretion of the Senior Treasurer but, ordinarily, it will be allocated on the following basis: (a) For claims under £50, the first £10 pounds will be covered; (b) claims between £50 and £200, the first £25; (c) claims above £200, the first £50; (d) any remaining sum in the Fund will be allocated on a pro rata basis.
